41. My mother took me to see a play at the Arts Centre. It was an exciting play to watch.
It was about a cook and a thief（贼）. The cook was interested in making pies. The thief also liked pies, but he didn’t want to make them himself. So he just stole a pie from the cook’s house.

The cook’s friend put up a notice around town. It said his restaurant was looking for the best pie. If anyone won the competition, he would give him or her $ 500. To get the money, the thief came to the competition with the pie he “took” from the cook.
Of course, the thief did not win, and the cook recognized（认出）the pie when the thief brought it out. The cook didn’t call the police. Instead, he taught the thief how to make pies. The thief practised very hard. One month later, the thief went home with a pie that he had made by himself as a gift. “Fantastic!” his wife smiled. “You can be a better man!”

43. Impatience has been around for a long time.There is nothing new about people losing their patience while stuck in traffic or waiting in line. But some experts believe that people are less patient today than in the past.
Some analysts suggest that in recent years many people are less patient because of technology. They suggest that “digital technology, from cell phones to e-mails to iPads, is changing our lives. The instant results we get from this technology have in turn increased our appetite for instant satisfaction in other aspects of our lives.”
Psychologist Jennifer Hartstein makes some observations. She explains that “we have become an immediate satisfaction culture, and we expect things to move quickly, efficiently and in the way we want. When that doesn’t happen, we tend to become increasingly frustrated and unsatisfied.”
Some believe that e-mail is losing popularity and could soon become outdated. Why? Because many people who send messages do not have the patience to wait hours, or even minutes, for a response. Also, with e-mails, as with letter writing, introductory and concluding greetings are often expected. But many people consider such formalities（客套）to be boring and time-consuming. They prefer instant messaging. Many people do not take the time to proofread what they put in writing. As a result, letters and e-mails contain numerous grammatical and typographical errors. The thirst for immediate results is not limited to the realm of digital communications. People seem to be losing their ability to wait in other areas of life. For instance, do you ever find yourself talking too fast, eating too fast, driving too fast, or spending money too fast? The few moments it takes to wait for an elevator to come, for a traffic light to change, or for a computer to start may seem like too long a time.

A. it takes a long time to start the computer

B. people can hardly wait for a response

D. cell phones are more popular nowadays

4)The pursuit of immediate results leads people to ________

A. lose many of their abilities in life

B. become more impolite

C. use voice messages instead of e-mails
